This project will provide monitoring of key fish species and habitat features within the planned Ocean Wind site and a nearby control site off the coast of southern New Jersey before, during, and after wind farm construction. This glider is equipped with an Acoustic Zooplankton Fish Profiler (AZFP), an autonomous, low-power echo sounder that possesses the capabilities to study the abundance, distribution, and behavior of various sizes of fishes and large zooplankton throughout the water column over large spatial scales by measuring acoustic backscatter returns with ultrasonic frequencies.

Deployment of a Slocum glider to perform seasonal surveys of dissolved oxygen concentrations in the shallow coastal waters of New Jersey. This deployment is part of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection's yearly coastal waters oxygen monitoring efforts. This glider carried a Seabird Scientific CTD, Seabird Scientific ECO triplet fluorescence-backscatter-chlorophyll a sensor, and Aanderaa dissolved oxygen sensor.

First leg of the ru29 Challenger mission from South Africa to Brazil. The glider was deployed off the coast of Cape Town, South Africa and transected to Ascension Island. The Challenger Mission is a re-creation of the first global scientific ocean survey conducted by the HMS Challenger in 1872. A fleet of up to 16 autonomous underwater gliders will be deployed in all five ocean basins.

Second leg of the ru29 Challenger mission from South Africa to Brazil. The glider was deployed off the coast of Ascension Island and transected to Ubatuba, Brazil. The Challenger Mission is a re-creation of the first global scientific ocean survey conducted by the HMS Challenger in 1872. A fleet of up to 16 autonomous underwater gliders will be deployed in all five ocean basins.

Next leg of the ru29 Challenger mission from Brazil to South Africa. The Challenger Mission is a re-creation of the first global scientific ocean survey conducted by the HMS Challenger in 1872. A fleet of up to 16 autonomous underwater gliders will be deployed in all five ocean basins. The goals of the project are the spread ocean literacy, educate the general population about the ocean's impact on global climate and provide real-time temperature, salinity and density profiles for assimilation into regional and global weather forecasting models.
